Virgin America: The Tale of 1D (Part 1)
First of all, the “massage chair” functionality is a total sham. This is basically a glorified dental exam chair and can almost recline back into a bed, but there is no damn massage. I haven’t asked pointedly, but I must scream “has never flown first class before,” cause I, alone, was given a personal chair tutorial, and it never came up.
Things that are awesome about First:
1. The food.
I have legit silverware that I just ate my breakfast yogurt with fruit plate (delish!), warm muffins (they were warm!), and my egg with-bunch-of-other-stuff panini (it was toasted!).
2. They refer to you by name. (I am also easily impressed.)
Things that are not so awesome:
The dude behind me jacked my personal reading light that looks like a personal karaoke mic. Apparently he needs three: mine, his, and the one for the empty seat next to him.
I wonder if he bought both of them for himself, because that shit was sold online. I know cause I got up at 7:30 to upgrade yesterday. As a random aside, I think he also has a bladder issue. He’s peed like, twice in the past 26 minutes. Just saying.
